40K league

How about we start a 40K league, everyplayer uses the same amount of points eg 1500 and plays everyone else at least once. Tables, league positions etc could be updated on the website etc. So everyone, what do you think?

I like, I like....

Normal games this time? without extra rules to remember?

and use the same line-up each week? - as would happen if you went away for a weekend tournament - should make people think about armies that can take on anything! Especially good if we don't know who's playing who until the night.

Another idea I had was to perhaps try a mini-tournament one week - low points limit and play several games in one night - not sure how that would work...

Sounds like a good idea,even though I won't be able to join in.
Obviously you must get the rules right before you start and an army list which must be kept for the whole of the league sounds like a good idea, unless you allow one unit per week to be exchanged?
Provision must be allowed for people to be away, holidays, illness etc., perhaps a penalty for missing more than two weeks?

Just a few ideas - back to work. It's hell on nights!!!!

Could use a points system: 3pts for a win, 1 for a draw and 0 for losing
perhaps -1 for missing a week?

The idea of a neutral referee is good

Further thought - perhaps we should start it once 5th ed is out - otherwise we might end up swapping rules sets half-way through

I came up with a few idea's.

If I were to run it each week we would play a mission etc. rolling of course for the respected mission. (i assume it will be th same in the new Ed) recon, cleanse etc.

Games could be done in the normal fashion 3,1,0 WDL much like football.
OR
I was thinking about instead of a league per-say we could have a map. Everytime you win a game you win a square on the map. The person with the most squares wins?
I would of course make the map small so you could steal enemy squares for winning etc.? sounded a bit interesting.

Each player will submit an army list to me. I will log it and check whether you are using the same army every game. If you change anything then they'll be penalties for your next game (a hefty handicap). + if you cheat you don't really deserve my attention so meh!

It's up to you guys. I'm impartial and would love to hear your guys opinions! hell if i get my deathguard done I could play :D

Map idea is great.
Was playing Risk on Thurs - could steal ideas from that - eg can only attack territory next to one you occupy, and losing all lands = out of tournament. If everyone starts with several areas so losing 1 game doesn't mean people are out straight away...
Just more random thoughts

This might seem a bit obvious but 40k has a whole system based on victory points. You could just score the number of points you score in each game. If everyone plays everyone then know one will be at a disadvantage.

another good suggestion.
Of course, missing a week then carries its own disadvantage - everyone else scores points while missing players don't.

However, I believe 5th ed is changing system to 'kill points' with destroyed units giving away one each (not entirely sure I've got this 1000% right), but that system could be easily adopted.

I suppose it may come down to whether people want to play games with diferent objectives, or wipe each other out (evil laugh)

i really like the idea of a sort map to play on cuz it actually seems like it not just random battles and you can conquer places of ur choice (even though i bet most would go after me ffs lol) if we do this we need a map to be designed but like mcphee said not to big and we need to start of with bout 3 maybe 4 territories each so we dont get wiped out in the 1st go lol :blink: :blink: :blink:
